He has not started hormones yet. Doc wants to wait to see his PSA in 3 months again and will go from there. He said it will rise but could be 3 months, 18 months - who knows. Just be vigilant with testing & will address it when it does rise.

After surgery, I did not have any hormone therapy and it took 3 1/2 years before it came back. After salvage radiation, no hormone therapy. Took 2 1/2 years to come back.

Mine keeps coming back because I have BRCA2. For the majority of people with a Gleason seven it doesn’t come back.
